LONDON, UK — The use of a diagnostic strategy with fractional flow reserve (FFR) derived from computed tomography (CT) significantly reduces the number of patients requiring invasive coronary ...

In statin-treated patients with CAD and elevated triglycerides, icosapent ethyl benefited coronary physiology as assessed by CT-derived fractional flow reserve compared with placebo, according to ...

The program identifies coronary artery blockages by calculating fractional flow reserve based on CT scans of a patient's heart, all without cardiac catheterization. News & Perspective Drugs & Diseases ...

Compared with coronary CTA interpretation alone, CT-derived fractional flow reserve yields higher diagnostic performance and differentiation of ischemia among patients and vessels with high ...

In a paper published in Science Bulletin, researchers have developed a fully automated, one-click, on-site CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) technique, which can detect functionally ...

PARIS, France—The addition of CT-based FFR screening to angiography alone for measuring the functional significance of coronary lesions causes interventional cardiologists to change management plans ...

This is not true. Both studies still identify who will do well. For FAME, FFR-guided stenting in patients will do better than those stented based on angiography alone. For FAME 2 those with positive ...

HeartFlow FFR CT is intended for use in patients with stable, recent-onset chest pain and suspected angina. Because the safety and effectiveness of FFR CT analysis has not been evaluated in other ...
